How Parent's Concerns Relate To Their Children's Social Competence, Vikki Negron

Theses

Social competence in children is correlated to their success in interacting with adults and peers throughout their life (McCabe, 1998). Social incompetence is associated with peer rejection, poor academic performance, grade retention, juvenile delinquency, school drop-out, and substance abuse (Ladd & Asher, 1990; McCabe, 1998; Ramsey & Ramsey, 1992). This study investigated the relationship between parental concerns about future expectations, child development, parent-child interaction, discipline and social competence in urban preschoolers 2.9-4.8 years of age who attended the Rochester Preschool Parent Program (RPPP). The Parental Questionnaire was used to measure parental concerns (PMHP, 1998). Social competence was measured by parent …

Evolution Of A Scientific Meeting: Eighty Annual Meetings Of The American Society Of Mammalogists, 1919-2000, Hugh H. Genoways, Patricia W. Freeman

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

The American Society of Mammalogists has held 80 annual meetings between 1919 and 2000. These meetings have been held in 32 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Canada, and Mexico. At least 86 people have served as the chair or co-chair of the Local Committee planning the meetings. The number of technical presentations has grown from a low of 17 in 1921 to 340 in 1994. Symposia were an early feature of annual meetings but did not become a regular feature until 1971. Poster presentations were introduced in 1979 and reached a high of 195 posters at the 1994 annual …

Transition Temperature For Weakly Interacting Homogeneous Bose Gases, Frederico F. De Souza Cruz, Marcus B. Pinto, Rudnei O. Ramos

Dartmouth Scholarship

We apply the nonperturbative optimized linear δ expansion method to the O(N) scalar field model in three dimensions to determine the transition temperature of a dilute homogeneous Bose gas. Our results show that the shift of the transition temperature ΔTc/Tc of the interacting model, compared with the ideal-gas transition temperature, really behaves as γan1/3 where a is the s-wave scattering length and n is the number density. For N=2 our calculations yield the value γ=3.059.

The Validity Of Parental Reports Of Preschooler’S Early Literacy Skills, Allison M. Henning

Dissertations and Theses

It has been well documented that children with language impairments often go on to have difficulties in reading, with many of these children not being diagnosed until first or second grade. However, research demonstrates a predictive relationship between early literacy skills and later reading and writing success. Thus, assessment of early literacy is to utilize parental reports, which have been found to provide valuable information regarding children's communicative-linguistic development.

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between parental reports of early literacy behaviors of their preschool children and the child's performance on informal and formal early literacy …

The Peculiar Motions Of Early-Type Galaxies In Two Distant Regions - Vi. The Maximum-Likelihood Gaussian Algorithm, M. Colless, R. P. Saglia, D. Burstein, R. L. Davies, R. K. Mcmahan, G. Wegner

Dartmouth Scholarship

The EFAR project is designed to measure the properties and peculiar motions of early-type galaxies in two distant regions. Here we describe the maximum-likelihood algorithm we developed to investigate the correlations between the parameters of the EFAR data base. One-, two- and three-dimensional Gaussian models are constructed to determine the mean value and intrinsic spread of the parameters, and the slopes and intrinsic parallel and orthogonal spread of the Mg₂–Mgb′,Mg₂–σ,Mgb′–σ relations, and the Fundamental Plane. In the latter case, the cluster peculiar velocities are also determined. We show that this method is superior to …

Importance Of Bacterial Decomposition And Carrion Substrate To Foraging Brown Treesnakes, S.M. Jojola-Elverum, J.A. Shivik, L. Clark

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

Brown treesnakes are an invasive species to the island of Guam that have caused extensive ecological and economic damage. Efforts to control the snake population have included trapping using live mouse lures, but for logistical and economic reasons a synthetic lure is needed. When searching for live food, brown treesnakes use both visual and odor cues. However, when searching for carrion, odor cues are sufficient. Attempts to develop synthetic lures based on chemical reconstruction of the complex carrion odor have not succeeded. We provide evidence that a microbial–substrate interaction is important for bait take by brown treesnakes. Microbial cultures taken …

Chandra Detection Of Doppler-Shifted X-Ray Line Profiles From The Wind Of Zeta Puppis (O4f), J. P. Cassinelli, N. A. Miller, W. L. Waldron, J. J. Macfarlane, David H. Cohen

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Works

We report on a 67 ks High-Energy Transmission Grating observation of the optically brightest early O star zeta Puppis (O4 f). Many resolved X-ray lines are seen in the spectra over a wavelength range of 5-25 Angstrom. Chnndra has sufficient spectral resolution to study the velocity structure of isolated X-ray line profiles and to distinguish the individual forbidden, intercombination, and resonance (fir) emission lines in several He-like ions, even where the individual components are strongly Doppler-broadened. In contrast to X-ray line profiles in other hot stars, zeta Pup shows blueshifted and skewed line profiles, providing the dearest and most direct …

Computational Study Of Molecular Hydrogen In Zeolite Na-A. Ii. Density Of Rotational States And Inelastic Neutron Scattering Spectra, Jennifer A. Mackinnon , '95, J. Eckert, D. F. Coker, Amy Lisa Graves

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Works

Part I of this series [J. Chem. Phys. 111, 7599 (1999)] describes a simulation of H(2) adsorbed within zeolite Na-A in which a block Lanczos procedure is used to generate the first several (9) rotational eigenstates of H(2), modeled as a rigid rotor, and equilibrated at a given temperature via Monte Carlo sampling. Here, we show that rotational states are strongly perturbed by the electrostatic fields in the solid. Wave functions and densities of rotational energy states are presented. Simulated neutron spectra are compared with inelastic neutron scattering data. Comparisons are made with IR spectra in which rotational levels may …

Using Human Observer Eye Movements In Automatic Image Classifiers, Alejandro Jaimes, Jeff Pelz, Timothy Grabowski, Jason Babcock, Shih-Fu Chang

Presentations and other scholarship

We explore the way in which people look at images of different semantic categories (e.g., handshake, landscape), and directly relate those results to computational approaches for automatic image classification. Our hypothesis is that the eye movements of human observers differ for images of different semantic categories, and that this information can be effectively used in automatic content-based classifiers. First, we present eye tracking experiments that show the variations in eye movements (i.e., fixations and saccades) across different individuals for images of 5 different categories: handshakes (two people shaking hands), crowd (cluttered scenes with many people), landscapes (nature scenes without people), …
